000 Buck Ammo For Sale

000 buckshot, also known as triple-aught buck, is one of the largest buckshot sizes available, making it a powerful choice for both hunting and personal defense. With .36-inch diameter pellets, 000 buckshot delivers significant stopping power, and with about eight pellets per round, it offers excellent penetration. Compared to 00 buckshot, the individual pellets in 000 buck are heavier, resulting in deeper penetration and more energy delivered to the target.

In home defense situations, 000 buck's devastating force makes it highly effective within an optimal range of 35 yards. While it has fewer pellets than smaller shot sizes, the increased size and weight of each pellet contribute to its remarkable stopping power. For hunting, 000 buck is often considered overkill for smaller game, but it excels in regions where larger prey like deer, moose, or bears are more common. If you're running a 20 gauge setup and want to compare load options, take a look at our full selection of 20 gauge ammo to find the best fit for your intended use.
